Abstract

Optimal scheduling of power plants is an important problem in power system operations. This problem is a complex programming approach based on the dimension of power systems, number, and types of power generation units. In recent years, the penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) as clean, cheap, and green resources of energy has been increased in power systems. Therefore, the classic power generation scheduling problem is converted to a large-scale mixed-integer non-linear and stochastic optimization problem. In this regard, a review of various optimal scheduling problems in restructured power systems, their solution methods, advantages, and disadvantages is introduced in the presence of RES in this paper.
